Fish and chip van for events for your event in Streatham Hill

We trade at village fêtes, school fairs, sports days, festivals and shows. We serve curry sauce, mushy peas and cod and chips, and typical bookings are for feeding event crew and village fêtes.

In Streatham Hill, community events include street parties, school fairs and markets. Public spaces usually need council permission, and the van needs a pitch it can reach. We serve from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

What affects the price in Streatham Hill

The same numbers can mean different prices, because of:

  • Cod, haddock or both
  • Distance and any road charges
  • Whether a minimum applies
  • Numbers

Most vans have a minimum charge, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. We will tell you up front.

Details that help

Good planning starts with a few facts. Please include:

  • A photo of the parking spot
  • Dietary needs, with numbers
  • The address or venue name
  • Expected numbers

Most quotes start with a few simple details: date, address, numbers and serving time. To send them, send us your details through our quote form.

Step by step

We arrive on time, pulls onto the spot you’ve chosen and the hatch goes up. When the fryers are up to heat, service starts at the time you asked for. Winter fairs in Streatham Hill are dark by about 3:55pm, so pitches need lighting; spring events have light until about 8:50pm by late May.

  1. Contact us with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
  2. A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
  3. Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
  4. We park, open the hatch and start frying for your visitors.
  5. Once the last portion is out, we pack up and go.

Preparing for the day

  • Keep space clear for visitors at the hatch
  • Share the timings for the day
  • Give us a contact for the day

15 questions to ask before you book

Planning the van’s spot

Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but there are a few things to check:

  • Information about power and water
  • Agreement from the site for a catering van
  • A wet-weather pitch on hard standing

As a London location, Streatham Hill is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

From the hatch

  • Chips
  • Mushy peas
  • Haddock and chips

Diets, allergies and planning

Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:

  • Share pitch details
  • Ensure allergen information is available
  • Settle the pitch terms early
  • Offer a choice of traders where you can

Mark out the queue area away from walkways.

Put the van near the entrance or the tea tent.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: big pans of hot oil, children and garden parties do not mix. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

You could do a chip-shop run for everyone yourself, but it rarely works for a crowd. Long waits and a drive home mean food arrives lukewarm and soggy. With a van, it’s fried on the spot.
